Line 88: I notice a lot of your edits are summarized as "eliminate redirect". Per [[WP:NOTBROKEN]], doing this is discouraged; it has no affect on the text for the reader, and, as the number of articles is expanded, some redirects are developed into their own more-specific article, and when this happens edits like this will have to be hunted down and reverted. Thus, the only effect of these edits is wasting editors' time. --[[User:A D Monroe III\|A D Monroe III]]<sup>([[User talk:A D Monroe III#top\|talk]])</sup> 03:41, 1 March 2021 (UTC) You might have convinced me if not for the disingenuous use of the words "thus" and "only." I guess your comment would be valid if it had been "the only effect of these edits '''for ME..."''' Some others have taken a different view, since your assertion of "no affect on the text for the reader" doesn't apply to everybody. It's okay, those of us who detest bookmarked redirects aren't bothered by the presence of others who love them.[[User:Aboctok\|Aboctok]] ([[User talk:Aboctok#top\|talk]]) 18:46, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
